Free Secret Snacks by 8bit and Messina

For one month, Gelato Messina and ’80s-style burger joint 8bit are teaming up with the app Liven for a big giveaway.

The rewards app trades in its own digital currency – LivenCoin, or LVN – that can be used to buy food and other products from its partners in Melbourne and Sydney. If you sign up in the next month you'll receive free LVN to spend on select items at Gelato Messina and 8bit.

8bit – reminiscent of an old-school fish'n'chip shop, complete with arcade games – is offering the Insert Coin burger (a beef burger with bacon, smashed avocado and feta) at all of its locations. Gelato Messina is offering a different flavour each week of the promotion, including ChipOCurrency (peanut-butter gelato with white-chocolate-covered potato chips).

The giveaway starts on October 23. Download the app, then check your inbox for instructions on how to claim your freebies.
